<p>The recent segment on “The View” reacting to a CPAC speech showcased a stunning display of leftâwing ignorance about children, families, and the demographic realities facing the United States. The CPAC clip that triggered the panel featured a speaker urging Americans to “have babies, get married, and build strong families” &#8212; arguing that national renewal depends on a healthy new generation. This message—rooted in longâstanding demographic concerns—was met with open hostility from several of <em>The View’s</em> coâhosts.</p>



<p>Sara Haines dismissed the idea outright, claiming it “wraps a woman’s worth up in her ovaries” and insisting the world has “over 8 billion people,” as if global population totals erase America’s own fertility crisis.</p>



<p>Sunny Hostin called the message “reckless,” citing economic pressures and the Democrats current talking-point, affordability.</p>



<p>Ana Navarro framed it as an intrusion on bodily autonomy – a ridicules response since the CPAC speaker was not advocating <strong>forced </strong>childbirth.</p>



<p>Even more ridiculous was Whoopi Goldberg, who reacted with disbelief &#8212; invoking racial history and implying that calls for more children echoes past racial oppression.</p>



<p>Goldberg’s framing is not only historically inaccurate but inverted. In the Democrat-controlled Jim Crow southland, the racist policies of the era were aimed at <strong>reducing</strong> Black births, not encouraging them. Stateâsanctioned forced sterilizations, coercive medical procedures, and eugenics programs disproportionately targeted Black women. Goldberg’s ass-backwards response is, itself, racist, misguided and deeply ironic.</p>



<p>Meanwhile, the demographic facts are not in dispute. America’s fertility rate has fallen to roughly 1.6 births per woman, far below the replacement level of 2.1. Economists and Sociologists warn that a shrinking younger generation threatens Social Security, the labor force, economic growth and longâterm national vitality. Nations that have ignored these trends— such as China, Japan, South Korea and Italy—now face severe population declines, economic stagnation, and collapsing social systems.</p>



<p>Against this backdrop, the dismissive rhetoric of the ladies of <em>The View</em> appears profoundly ignorant and out of touch with reality. Their strident left-wing feminist opinions expressed on the show are not only antiâfamily but emblematic of a cultural trend that trivializes the importance and benefits of two-parent families raising the next generation of children. No nation can thrive without a sufficient replacement generation. Pretending otherwise is not feminine empowerment. It is demographic denialism.</p>



<p>So, there ‘tis.</p>



<p><strong>Author Note</strong>: The subject of the critical importance of the two-parent nuclear family to the future of society is detailed in a soon to be released book by Timothy J. Kaelin and this writer entitled, “The Family Neighborhood” with the subtitle, “A Blueprint to Reverse Family Decline and To Spark Cultural Renewal Across America.”</p>
